Career so Far

2024 looked likely to be a redshirt season for Jordan. However, the OU receiver room was decimated and Jordan rose to the occasion. He played in each of the final seven games, finishing the season third on the team in receptions and fourth in receiving yards. In a receiver group that was as low as its been in years, Jordan was a lone bright spot.

This Season

Oklahoma’s wide receiver room will have a lot of new faces in 2025, plus several returning options. Deion Burks, Javonnie Gibson, Isaiah Sategna, and several others will be the frontrunners of the group. Jordan was a regular contributor for the second half of the 2024 season and gained experience in those games. There are a lot of faces ahead of him, but he’ll work hard to continue his playing time his year.
